ParaS Saluja is sitting coolly in a scrapyard in Ghaziabad, unaffected by the heat or the junk. His business, Shayna EcoUnified India, converts non-biodegradable plastic waste like polybags, packets of chips, plastic bottles and bottle caps, into attractive, colourful tiles.
Saluja with his friend Sandeep Nagpal started Shayna Ecounified India in July 2017. Till then, he had zero experience in waste management. He had been working as a distributor of pharmaceuticals. So why did he deviate and set up a social impact enterprise?
An avid mountaineer and adventure junkie, Saluja says he did the Everest Base. . .
